My blog features the activities and projects I do with my children. I have 3 children age 11, 7 and 4. I watch an infant, plus my 4 year old nephew! This blog highlights the activities/projects we create during the week. It also provides a way for me to organize all of the activities and projects we do, and it is a great way to share the projects/activities. I hope this blog will become a great resource and inspire creativity.

Under the Sea Picture!
This idea comes from the June/July 2007 issue of the Mailbox Magazine (Kindergarten/Grade 1)
Project: Under the Sea Picture - Fill a shallow pan with enough water to cover the bottom. Use a scissors to scrape shavings of blue chalk into the water covered pan. Dip a shell template in the chalk-water. Let Dry. Sponge paint the bottom of a white piece of paper with yellow paint (the sand). Use blue crayon to water on the top half of the white paper. Glue the shell onto the paper and add additional sea components - like seaweed and other sea creatures.
Materials Needed: white paper, scissors, blue chalk, water, shallow pan, glue, yellow paint, sponge, shell template
The paint sand actually looks like sand. Very creative!
